Hello Everyone, a new work has been started called "Having a Father Like Me Is Truly Embarrassing" on my account. Please check it out.

[Ding! The relevant game file packages have been stored.]
"Here we go…" Hearing the system notification, Andrew's eyes lit up almost instantly, a spark of excitement flickering deep within them.
"SCP: 5K." He murmured under his breath, unable to suppress the rising thrill in his chest. His heartbeat quickened, and even his breathing grew slightly uneven.
This was the second game in his arsenal. And more importantly, this would be the very first paid title. There was no doubt in his mind that this game would earn him his first true fortune. And it wouldn't be just any fortune; it would be massive, transformative, and powerful enough to become the cornerstone of everything he envisioned. This would be the first step toward building his own virtual empire.
Andrew exhaled slowly, trying to steady himself, though the excitement still lingered in every nerve of his body. With deliberate focus, he moved the mouse, circling the disk where the game file package was stored.
As the enormous file package fully appeared before his eyes, Andrew instinctively took another deep breath, almost as if bracing himself for the weight of what he had created.
"The game is ready… Now, all that's left is the official pre-sale…" A faint smile formed on his lips as he spoke softly, his voice carrying a quiet confidence.
His gaze then shifted toward the system panel, where the remaining emotional values came into view.
[Mood Value: 5,500.]
This round of development had consumed far more emotional value than expected, far more intense than even his previous project. But Andrew wasn't worried. Not in the slightest. Because he knew exactly what he had just created. With this as a foundation, the next surge of emotional value would be explosive, far beyond anything before. Even more overwhelming than Containment Breach.
"Hmm… Next step: announce the pre-sale, then officially launch it…And the pricing…Yes, I've already decided. Once the pre-sale funds come in, I can start planning the company headquarters… Ah, right, I also need to think about hiring employees… And if I truly want to build my own virtual empire, I'll need more than just games… I'll need my own platform, my own complete gaming ecosystem. There's no way I can keep relying on other platforms to publish my work… On top of that, I should establish an independent website, something dedicated to showcasing the Foundation universe… It'll help players understand the world… and strengthen the core IP at the same time."
Andrew stared at the screen, thoughts racing through his mind like a storm. His fingers tapped rhythmically against the desk. Ideas collided, merged, and evolved in rapid succession. Nearly ten minutes passed in deep contemplation before his expression finally sharpened with resolve.
"That settles it. I'll release the pre-sale announcement first. Once the initial funds arrive, I'll move forward with everything else. And of course… the top twenty teams should receive the game files in advance. I already promised that… Hmm, I'll sync it with the official pre-sale timing." Andrew's eyes gleamed with determination.
At this moment, he felt better than ever before, clear-headed, driven, and unstoppable. Once he made up his mind, he acted immediately. His hand gripped the mouse, fingers dancing across the keyboard with precision and speed. Before long, the announcement was officially published on the platform.
The content itself was simple and direct. It informed players that the top twenty slots had been finalized and that the development team would soon send the new game files to the selected participants.
At the same time, the announcement confirmed that the second new game, "SCP: 5K", was about to officially begin its pre-sale. The moment the announcement went live, it didn't just attract attention; it ignited a storm. A massive, unprecedented wave of excitement erupted across the internet…
